Welcome To The ECDA WebSite Edenderry Today
The Edenderry Community Development Association was formed in March 2004 by residents and former residents of the area, with the aim of improving the knowledge of the public by giving them greater involvement in the wider community and promoting awareness of history, folklore and the cultural heritage of the area. The Association was established to benefit the people of the greater Edenderry area regardless of class, creed or other opinion. Edenderry Community Development Association will seek to maintain equipment, premises and facilities to carry out their objectives. One of our first projects is researching the Wade pottery factory in Watson Street. Visit the website www.wadeireland.co.uk for full details of the pottery project. Portadown Railway Station 1950's
